This handcrafted chrysocolla and silver bangle was a custom build for one of my lovely clients. Robbie wanted a unique and personal gift to give to his partner for her birthday. He visited my workshop and viewed the selection of gemstones I had available. The gorgeous pair of chrysocolla stones caught his eye, and they are the perfect shade for a redhead to wear.

As I usually do, I kept the design of this handcrafted chrysocolla and silver bangle simple. The gemstones are the key feature of the piece. I prefer to let them do the talking. Often, the simple things in life are the best!
Chrysocolla is a copper containing mineral, and is often found with turquoise and malachite. This gemstone comes in the most glorious shades from deep green to bright blue. I’ve made a few pieces with this gorgeous stone, including this pendant for my lovely mum. Meanwhile, I have a couple of pieces on the bench now waiting for me to turn them into custom pieces.
I have some other beautiful pairs of gemstones in different colours and shapes. If you’d like your own bangle, or even a pair of earrings, let me know. I’d be happy to create for you!












The ring is a huge one at nearly 5 cm long. It makes a great statement piece, but is comfortable enough for daily wear. The stone sits on top of the finger, but allows full movement of the finger below. I love to wear huge rings, and I take them off only if it gets very hot or if I’m doing something quite manual, like building another ring! You can read
